The Athletic claim RB Leipzig midfielder Tyler Adams will fly to England on Tuesday evening ahead of undergoing a medical with Leeds United over a proposed £20million move. Adams is in line to become the club’s fourth signing.
A busy Monday for Leeds fans saw the club wave goodbye to Elland Road favourite Kalvin Phillips, who joined Manchester City. However, Leeds instantly welcomed the arrival of teenager Darko Gyabi from City.
Then, it quickly became apparent that Leeds would not be hanging around. They are in advanced talks to sign both USA midfielder Adams from Leipzig, and Colombian sensation Luis Sinisterra from Feyenoord.

Reports say Leeds want both deals wrapped up before the end of the week when the club jet out to Australia for their pre-season tour. It looks all the more likely that a deal for Adams will be done in time.
At least, that is according to Phil Hay and The Athletic. They claim that Adams will fly into England this evening to undergo a medical and thrash out a move – with a proposed deal said to be worth £20million.

Leeds are not hanging around. Having already spent £50million on Brenden Aaronson, Marc Roca and Rasmus Kristensen. They are now set to take their spending to £70million, offset by the £45million sale of Phillips.
It sees Leeds instantly bring in a midfielder to replace Phillips. They are unlikely to stop there with Sinisterra and others being strongly linked. They include Daichi Kamada, Charles De Ketelaere and plenty more.
